In 2015 Benjamin Sadd and James Trundle decided to have an adventure and make a film. They wanted to build on their previous journeys and do something on a grander scale so they came up with the idea of building a dugout canoe. They traveled to the Ecuadorian Amazon, lived in an indigenous community that helped them build the canoe, then launched it into a river and continued their adventure through Ecuador’s Yasuni region – one of the most biodiverse areas of the world. These 2 months are captured in their award-winning film DugOut – An Amazon Adventure which you can find online at vimeo.com You can learn more about Benjamin at trailtoanywhere.com and more about James at jamestrundle.com.
